Australia showed no mercy to Srilankans

The world champions of 50 overs cricket and the test cricket no. 1 ranked team Australia is showing no mercy to Srilankans. The Australian batsmen continue to pile the scores. This second match seems to be the recap of first test match.

On a pitch that remained good for batting, Hussey’s morning session was unusually subdued, bar a slog-swept six off Muralitharan, before striking out after rain delays in the afternoon. Fernando, bowling slower because of an ankle complaint, continued to toil and finally brought down the curtain on Hussey’s back-to-back hundreds for 132.

Sri Lanka is really have to work hard to avoid follow on. The Australian pace attackers will create difficulty for the guest team.
